One of the more popular – and essential – websites today is about to arrive on the iPad too. Mint.com, the financial juggernaut owned by Intuit, should be arriving on the tablet as a free app very soon, according to TUAW.

According to the report:

In a tweet posted October 11th, Mint mobile designer Jaanus Kase said “the @mint iPad app is nearly done and will be out very shortly.” He followed that up three days later with a posting on Mint’s satisfaction forums which states that the next Mint app will be universal (both for iPhone and iPad) and that it will require iOS 5, which is one of the reasons the company could not release it before now.

While the Mint.com Personal Finance app has been available for sometime for the iPhone/iPod touch, its has so far been M.I.A. on the iPad.
